    What does the ESP actually do? What, and why would i want to turn it off? How do i turn the traction controle off? Is the leon any good and fun for handbreak turns and drifting round corners? ( i know its FWD)

    ESP Kicking in Too Early

    I have a LCR with a few suspension mods: front & rear Eibach anti-roll bars, Koni FSD dampers and Eagle F1 tyres all round. The car grips phenomenaly well compared to standard - minimal bodyroll and very little understeer. However, the ESP is kicking in far too early! On a spirited drive...

  18. Question about the ESP on FR

    What does everyone think of this on the 170TDI? I find my car a little quicker with it off - ie no traction control, or am I imagining things? Has anyone ever had an experience where the ESP has stepped in and prevented an accident?
  19. ESP Question (Vagcom disabled? or broken?)

    Hi all, I've just received my Leon Sport (veeeeeeery nice it is too :) ), and the ESP button isn't working. It's second hand, so before I go back to the dealer I thought i'd quickly ask here --- I was just wondering if anyone knows whether this could've been a preference by the previous user...

    Question? - ESP Triggering over bumps (even when switched off!)
